Saints rookie RB said playing in an NFL game is "something I have dreamed about since I was a little kid."

It’s going really well. I am starting to pick up the system a lot easier. A lot of veteran guys are helping us out, so they are making the transition a lot smoother.

Q: The veterans have been impressed by your running style, Malcolm Jenkins taking exception to it, but he said to me he is impressed with your moxie in some of these runs…

I just go out there and compete, every day I just try and work hard and be the best player I can be. I really don’t have a rivalry with anybody that’s one of my teammates, so I wish the best for everybody, but I just go out there and compete everyday.

Q: How excited are you about making your preseason debut this Friday?

I’m real excited. Like I said a long time ago, it’s something I’ve dreamed about since I was a little kid. I’m excited and plan on taking full advantage of the opportunity.
